What to expect
Award-winning, New York Times bestselling author S. A. Cosby's debut novel My Darkest Prayer is republished in a new edition, with a new introduction from the author.
"I handle the bodies."
Whether it's working at his cousin's funeral home or tossing around the local riffraff at his favorite bar, Nathan Waymaker is a man who knows how to handle the bodies. A former marine and sheriff's deputy, Nathan has built a reputation in his small Southern town as a man who can help when all other avenues have been exhausted. When a beloved local minister is found dead, his parishioners ask Nathan to make sure the death isn't swept under the rug.
What starts out as an easy payday soon descends into a maze of mayhem filled with wannabe gangsters, vicious crime lords, porn stars, crooked police officers, and a particularly treacherous preacher and his mysterious wife. Nathan must use all his varied skills and some of his wit to navigate the murky waters of small town corruption even as dark secrets of his own threaten to come to the surface.
'Every once in a while a writer comes along with an incredible voice...add S. A. Cosby to that list.' STEVE CAVANAGH
'S. A. Cosby is a welcome, refreshing new voice in crime literature.' DENNIS LEHANE

S. A. Cosby is a welcome, refreshing new voice in crime literature
Dennis Lehane -
A voice as stark and distinctive as Elmore Leonard’s, and a humanity that touches the soul

Cosby’s prose barrels along like a pick-up still angry it’s not a Ferrari, and his phrase-making is up there with the great artists of noir

S.A. Cosby is one of the best crime fiction writers working today

Every once in a while a writer comes along with an incredible voice . . . add S. A. Cosby to that list
